Process

Why Model Design?
Complex system
Significant early investment
Critical decision making
Uncertainties in:-customer requirement-technology performance-market/competition
Point-based Design
One solution is chosen from initial set of ideas based on estimates of customer requirement and performance level
Design is frozen early to allow parallel sub-team work and optimization
Point-based (Deterministic) Model

Set-based Design
Term coined by Allen Ward
A design-space-spanning set of ideas is considered and analyzed
Slowly converge to final solution
Waste of resources in carrying extra designs ahead
Set-based (Flexible) Model

Design
The Simulation ModelExplore parallel exploration and delay of decisions
Customer requirement and design performance levels treated as random walking variables, with fixed volatility
Development cost per design period increases over project life
Effective annual discount rate of 10%
The Simulation Model
Sales revenue a parabolic function of difference between final customer requirement and design performance level
No revenue for first 16 months of development
Sales revenue for following 24 months
The Simulation Model
Simulation Results
Monte Carlo simulation with 5000 runs
